Spiritual growth doesn't always come with a soundtrack and spotlight. In this episode of That'll Preach, Pastor Ben shares how real transformation is often quiet, awkward, and painfully slow—like getting stuck behind a school bus right after praying for patience. But slow doesn't mean stagnant. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 3:18, this episode reminds us that God shapes us day by day, from glory to glory—even when we don't feel it.
